NORTHVALE, N.J., Dec. 12, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Elite Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Elite" or the "Company") (OTCBB:ELTP) today announced that it has filed an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a generic version of Norco (hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen tablets, USP CII) 2.5mg/325mg, 5mg/325mg, 7.5mg/325mg and 10mg/325mg tablets. Norco is a combination medication and is used to help relieve moderate to moderately severe pain. The combination products of hydrocodone and acetaminophen have total annual US sales of approximately $700 million according to IMS Health data.
"Hydrocodone/acetaminophen is a strategic addition to Elite's pain medicine portfolio. This immediate release opioid product is used extensively by doctors today in pain management. The acetaminophen creates irritation if the product is crushed and taken intranasally, thereby potentially providing some intranasal abuse-deterrence according to the FDA," said Nasrat Hakim, President and CEO of Elite. "Elite is committed to developing a diverse range of opioid abuse-deterrent pain products using our proprietary technology and building a foundation of attractive niche generic drugs."
